ALIGNING BUSINESS PROCESS MODELING AND SOFTWARE SPECIFICATION IN A COMPONENT-BASED WAY The advantages of SDBC

摘要

This paper introduces the SDBC approach. It aligns business process modeling and software specification. They are aligned in a component-based way. In particular, business components are identified and reflected in the software specification. The business components are identified considering the rich semantic and language/communicative expressiveness of current business systems. This is claimed to have a definite value in building a complete and realistic business model. The component-based alignment on the other hand is claimed to have sound theoretical background and promising practical perspective.
